We’ve all been there. Trying on countless pairs of jeans just to walk out of the fitting room empty-handed. Well, those days are long gone. All you have to do? Find your body shape below, then choose a pair that’s guaranteed to flatter.

AthleticOpt For: Straight or Boyfriend Jeans
Play up your shape with a fitted pair. Or try a looser style to add curves. (You can rock both.)

Pair models in the hottest sandals with pups galore and what do you get? An utter treat. Vogue tapped photographer Bruce Weber for an April 2015 shoot entitled “3 Models, 16 Dogs, and Spring’s 12 Best Sandals.” And it’s safe to say that the mag knows the way to my (and everyone else’s) heart.

The main focus here should be this season’s must-have gladiator sandal. But honestly, I can barely handle the cuteness. From Gigi Hadid and Jessica Hart in gilded knee-highs to a border collie named Diva rocking laced-up pairs of her own, this shoot is just too doggone great.

For costume jewelry: Prevent baubles from turning your skin green with the help of clear nail polish. Swipe a thin layer onto any part of your jewelry that comes in contact with your body (like the inside of rings or the back of necklace pendants).

For earrings on the go: Say bye to lost earrings in your weekender bag. Keep pairs together by securing each earring in the hole of a spare button. Now you can travel without the worry of stranded studs.

For tangled necklaces: Next time you encounter a jewelry tangle, grab baby oil and a sewing needle. Apply a couple drops of oil to the knot and lay on a flat surface. Then patiently work your way out from the center, using the needle for grip while detangling.

Orange has become the color of the moment, perhaps due to the heavy 70s influence this season. It’s popped up both on and off the runways for spring – and these three starlets worked the hue with ease.

2.Game of Thrones actress Nathalie Emmanuel showed off a winning color combo with a bright, figure-flattering midi skirt and an athletic-cut, light blue top, both from Mugler. The metallic accents and fresh makeup finished off her modern look.

3. Orange floral embroidery stole the show on January Jones’s navy Preen dress. The Mad Men actress tied the ensemble together from tip to toe, debuting a fiery new hair color for the occasion.

Haven’t kept those get-fit resolutions from January? Me neither. Fortunately, with a little help from our friends (in this case, SPANX®), a smoother silhouette is just an undergarment away. Whichever style you choose, these three shaping all-stars will be there to back you up.

Good news for fans of the cutest bow-wearing cartoon around: high fashion is about to take your favorite character to new heights. Designer Yohji Yamamoto has teamed up with Hello Kitty parent company Sanrio. The result of this unlikely collaboration? A line of clothing and accessories starring the kawaii (a.k.a. adorable) phenomenon.

The new brand, dubbed Kitty’s, will feature items ranging from $72 to $330. The collection will launch with polo shirts, sweatshirts, and T-shirts, followed by accessories including backpacks, iPhone cases, and baseball caps. With Yohji’s avant-garde styling and Hello Kitty’s twee charm, we’re sure that this pairing will result in whimsical couture.

Not since the news that Hello Kitty isn’t an actual kitty has the franchise been rocked so hard. Whatever she is, we’ll welcome her Yamamotofication into our wardrobes with open arms.

We like to go by the old adage, “If you dress for it, spring will come.” But since the weather hasn’t quite caught up with us yet, our maxi dresses need a little help to make them seasonally appropriate. Keep reading for tips on making the transition completely seamless.

Go ahead and thank the Instagram gods. Designer Marc Jacobs finally opened a personal account on the photo-loving platform (despite his reported distaste for it). And in the past few days he’s amassed a following over 40K strong with a single #nofilter shot. So why the change of heart? It’s likely tied to the overhaul of his namesake brand and a possible IPO bid.

As if the titles of musician, producer, and designer weren’t impressive enough, Pharrell can now add Fashion Icon Award winner to his accolades. The mogul will be honored for his contributions to style at the 2015 CFDA Fashion Awards on June 1.

From co-founding luxury sportswear brand Billionaire Boys Club to collaborating with Chanel, Pharrell has spent the past decade securing his spot as a trendsetter. Here’s to hoping for another larger-than-life accessory debut at the ceremony.
